Who We Are: The OFR is responsible for promoting financial stability by supporting the Financial Stability Oversight Council (Council).

Research output includes, among other things, briefings and analysis for the Council and its member agencies, data monitoring products, contributions to policy development and analysis, and research papers for peer-reviewed professional journals. Examples of OFR monitoring tools, reports on financial stability risks, and published research, please visit https://www.financialresearch.gov/.
Qualifications: A PhD or equivalent experience in economics, finance, accounting, or related disciplines with evidence of a strong interest in financial stability research and specialties in macroeconomics, systemic risk in the financial system, banking and regulation, and financial market microstructure are required. Strong oral and written communication skills, and U.S. citizenship also are required. Also required is one-year of experience, in PhD research or other work, conducting economic analysis for papers and reports intended for publication, to understand financial system risks, or to generate mathematical or statistical models that assess the impact of financial system developments on the economy. Experience working with econometric software and large data sets is preferred.
Salaries and benefits are competitive with similar positions at federal regulatory agencies covered by FIRREA. The U.S. Treasury Department is an equal opportunity employer.
